Most customers use a builder or developer when building a home or business and normally this person will fill-out the required paperwork on your behalf. If you're managing the project yourself here's a handy guide to what you need to do.
We aim to acknowledge your application within three to four business days of receipt of your application and provide an estimate or formal quote within four weeks. As soon as you have paid the formal quote, we will commence scheduling and procurement of materials.
You need to apply to relocate distribution equipment such as streetlights, transformers, pillars and overhead lines. Once we receive your application, we will provide you with a formal quote. We will endeavour to work with you to relocate the asset to your preferred location; however, this is dependent on a suitable location being available.
Traditionally electricity is distributed through overhead poles and wires but in recent years, this infrastructure has been placed below the ground. Not only does this look better but it also minimises the safety risks associated with electricity and reduces the likelihood of unplanned power interruptions due to adverse weather conditions.
If you are building a house or business, an underground connection will automatically be installed and the costs associated with this will be included in the connection quote we provide.
If you are in an area where electricity is supplied through an overhead network and you would like an underground power supply between the street pole and the meter box, you may be eligible for a subsidised rate. The application form details the terms and conditions to be eligible for this subsidised rate.
As a requirement of Main Roads WA, Horizon Power must authorise all load movements across our network where the load is more than 4.3m high and/or 5.5m wide.
